Appropriately titled “The Competition”, the film is an intensely fascinating account of how some of the best architects in the world -Jean Nouvel, Frank Gehry, Dominique Perrault, Zaha Hadid and Norman Foster- toil, struggle and strategize to beat the competition, namely the 2008 competition for a new National Museum of Art in Andorra, a small town in the Spanish Pyrenees.
